The Mandalorian

this was pretty terribly portrayed in the movies, but palpatine was basically running both the senate and the trade federation against each other specifically to bring all the jedi out onto the various battlefields across the galaxy. the wars were big enough that clones were basically sent out to every planet to fight the trade federation, and all the clones were led by jedi. the movies only showed a handful of jedi getting killed by order 66 but it was happening across the galaxy. and again, the movie portrayed it like anakin was the only one killing younglings, but clones were doing that too.

Not that I don't disagree.. but isn't pretty much everything after prequel timeline, a smear campaign on the force? You see it both in the original trilogy and in the meh trilogy, where someone challenges this idea of it being worth a damn.. His flashback is also filled with blasters, so my guess is it will be empire but I have no idea.. I didn't watch the clone war series.. they might not tie him to the main planet, but one of the outer planets associated with the mandolarians.. I just find it funny they're writing Fett to be a fraud in stolen armor. He was also orphaned, and assumable there was no anti-force fighting school.

It should also be noted, the Jedi existed as a "xmen school of the gifted" for those manifesting force sensitivity.
The Force exists outside of that, and manifests itself all the time. Theres literally Witchs, and wizards, and shit in the Starwars universe.
The Sith are also a specific school/code of conduct.

It is a big universe thought, and yeah sure, its possible, even if Chi, manna, the Force exists, and there are practitioners, they may not all by tied together. people who aren't Jedi or Sith might call the source of their powers something else.


A Mandalorian should know, since its a culture passed down, via tradition. and a long standing tradition of Fighten Jedi.

Nightsisters and their voodoo were some of the coolest parts of TCW

Hey, I have no star wars nerd cred, but if there tens of thousands of them, where were they in the movies ? Tens of thousands would also have meant thousands of kids in training surely ?

There weren't tens of thousand... there were ten thousand total... for a galaxy.

The Outer Rim is probably the best way to explain away the force ignorance. Cut throat behavior and opportunism seem to be the main behavior set in that environment, stories of magical force powers are most likely floating around amongst the commons, but it's probably "only believe it when you see it" and even then it would probably be questioned.

Mando being exposed to the force by baby Yoda is basically the entire premise of this season in a lot of ways. Order 66 was effective, but I think it's actually cool and a quality angle to have situations like this open the eyes of people in the galaxy that there is still hope and the force lives.

lawl @ the euros whining about spoilers

edit: first reply is a pic of baby yodle from the official account, that initial tweet isn't as blatant

I have no sympathy for Euros when it comes to spoilers for this. They should have pushed back on the dumb 30% local production bullshit.

Blue hairs are angry. So it means this show is really good.
